India records highest-ever exports in June Quarter

India recorded the highest-ever exports of $95 billion during April-June. The exports went up 85 percent year-on-year (YoY). In addition, exports had an 18 percent boost higher than the first quarter of the financial year 2019-20.

Merchandise Exports grow significantly

In June, merchandise exports increased by 47% year on year to $32.46 billion, owing to strong foreign demand for engineering items, petroleum products, and gems and jewelry. As a result, the government is now targeting $400 billion in exports by the end of this financial year.

Government’s plans to target $400 billion goal

BVR Subramanian, the Secretary of Commerce, stated that the $400 billion goal will be met by disaggregating the goal by product and industry. In addition, the government plans to hit $500 billion in FY23 and $1 trillion in annual goods exports over the next five years.

Several labor-intensive industries, according to Subramanian, have witnessed strong export development. “Engineering products exports increased by $5.2 billion in the first quarter of FY20. Rice exports, however, have been increasing steadily since May 2020, rising by 37% in Q1FY22 compared to Q1 2019-20,” he added.
